I have had the honor to hang out and visit with Bill and his wife Denise for a couple of days and hope many more. Those that know Bill, know he is a really good guy and great builder. His archtops are in just one word AWSOME as are his flat tops. I mentioned he should post pic's of it here, but he is modest about showing it, I will talk him into it eventually. His personal guitar is the most beautiful instrument I have seen, I just can't get over it. He has knowledge that goes on and on in many other stringed instruments. He has an honest love for this craft and art. Talk about jigs and fixtures, I am amazed at some of what I have seen so far, Simple, efficent and really cool. He has so much knowledge and a desire to share it. |

Bill has been a tremendous help in getting me started with building, always willing to answer questions even after taking his archtop class. I met he and Denise at the Long Island Show in 2001. What a neat couple! Nelson |

I have gotten to be friends with Bill through ASIA and I just can't say enough nice stuff about him. He is a total class act (and funny guy). |

I got met Bill at the airport in Baltimore last summer. I was wandering around the airport trying to find my way to ASIA when I see this guy standing there with a guitar case. I got to ride in the limo out to the sysmposium with him and Brent McElroy. He is a great guy and I hope to see him again one of these days. |
